Operator of MV1 stated while turning left from Washington Street onto Washington Street at the I90 overpass, while in the left/ straight lane, MV2 which was in the no turn lane, heading South toward Centre St decided to turn left onto Washington Street. MV1 was side swiped on the passenger side of the vehicle. Operator of MV1 stated MV2 did not stop and continued on Washington Street. Operator of MV1 had damage to the passenger side of the vehicle. Traffic Bureau update (Officer Gaudet): On Thursday, February 27, 2020, I made contact with the registered owner of MV2, CRM Property Management Corp. A representative there stated they would find out who was driving the vehicle and have them contact me. On Friday, February 28, 2020, I spoke with the operator of MV2, Peter Ben-Simon (S48100671) at the Newton Police Station. Ben-Simon stated he recalls the incident but said his vehicle never came in contact with MV1. Ben-Simon stated MV1 was driving erratically and was following him for some time on Washington Street. Ben-Simon believes his interaction with MV1was a road rage incident but did not want to pull over at the time and report it. I observed no fresh damage to MA: T20208 that would be consistant with being in a crash with MV1. Ben-Simon's information has been added to this report to reflect him being the operator of MV2. No futher action will be taken at this time.
